I wonder how much of this is people being creepy on their own and using their power to avoid consequences versus being embroiled in a culture where this creepy behavior, until now, has been so normalized that they aren't even aware that this sorta stuff isn't kosher. I'm not taking away any responsibility that these perpetrators have for their actions. But I just wonder how common it'd be if there wasn't a culture within Hollywood that normalized this behavior to such a degree. It isn't just Hollywood, its everywhere. We don't see it, but it happens in all working environments. I'm not phased by this. I've known my Manager to have boned an underage cashier or two, he's in his 30s, they were 17. My former manager grabbed a 17 year old girl's ass at a bowling alley that was his subordinate, he also boned a 15 year old cashier. Call this shit out, it isn't just Hollywood, its a problem everywhere. I've seen 70 year old men on the verge of cumming in their pants over teen girls walking by. I went with my stripper friend to Denny's and one of her regulars at her club walked over to the table, sat down, put his arm around her, I told the perv to f*** off but he acted like he was entitled to be there.

Rashida Jones put out a statement kinda pulling back on Lasseter specifically. Saying instead that Pixar entirely is kinda shitty toward women and people of color.
Oy.

I can't speak one way or another on POC, but have heard many times that animation as an industry has a serious "boy's club" problem, between sexual harassment claims (Savino and the "Clarence" creator, among others, and that's just well known cases) and a generally patronizing attitude. Fewer opportunities, less appreciation, etc.

The complaint about Pixar and its attitude towards POC has been around, too. Their upcoming film, Coco, has only one person of Mexican descent in a major position of production on the film even though the movie's subject is about the Day of the Dead. It's in sharp contrast to The Book of Life a few years ago which had a much more significant presence of Mexicans and Mexican-Americans on the production staff including the director. Which will likely result in Book of Life being a more authentic movie than Coco.

He was also friends with this guy: I wonder how he feels about him now To be fair, there are times when I get the impression Miyazaki has a bit of Ole Anderson in him, so he probably hates everyone already.

Oh Miyazaki is most definitely a grumpy old man but you can see where he is coming from when talking about otaku.

That and the Anime was a mistake line were troll jobs.

Real talk when I read the synopsis of Coco and watched the trailer my initial thought was, “Wait...this feels like someone at Pixar saw The Book of Life and said, ‘Yeah we can do that’...”

He also said that it might not translate very well because of how much and how well it plays on tropes in Mexican pop culture and the like.

That and the Anime was a mistake line were troll jobs. Yes I am well aware of that. But he has been quite outspoken about how dislikes a lot of modern anime and otakus in general. The complaint about Pixar and its attitude towards POC has been around, too.

I agree completely. Just give all the awards to Will Smith. He's doing a buddy cop movie with an Orc. The Oscars are as good as his next year anyway.
